Basement membrane

The basement membrane, also known as base membrane, is a thin, pliable sheet-like type of extracellular matrix that provides cell and tissue support and acts as a platform for complex signalling.

See FRAS1 and Basement membrane

Extracellular matrix

In biology, the extracellular matrix (ECM), also called intercellular matrix (ICM), is a network consisting of extracellular macromolecules and minerals, such as collagen, enzymes, glycoproteins and hydroxyapatite that provide structural and biochemical support to surrounding cells.

See FRAS1 and Extracellular matrix

Fraser syndrome

Fraser syndrome (also known as Meyer-Schwickerath's syndrome, Fraser-François syndrome, or Ullrich-Feichtiger syndrome) is an autosomal recessive congenital disorder, identified by several developmental anomalies.

See FRAS1 and Fraser syndrome

Gene

In biology, the word gene has two meanings.

See FRAS1 and Gene

Organogenesis

Organogenesis is the phase of embryonic development that starts at the end of gastrulation and continues until birth.

See FRAS1 and Organogenesis

Polymorphism (biology)

In biology, polymorphism is the occurrence of two or more clearly different morphs or forms, also referred to as alternative phenotypes, in the population of a species.

See FRAS1 and Polymorphism (biology)

Protein

Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues.
